Colin Boxer was a former United States Navy Petty Officer as well as a Valet guard at a hotel in Washington DC. While working, he stole millionaire Vijay Chaya's car and went for a joyride, unaware that he was being tailed by Alec Dell, a man who wanted revenge against Chaya for stealing an idea of his. Not realizing who it was, Dell shot and killed Boxer before fleeing the scene, Boxer having originally mistaken Dell for a police cruiser.
